Root Canal Treatment (RCT)
Root Canal Treatment (RCT)
Root Canal Treatment (RCT) is a dental procedure used to treat infection or damage within the soft core (pulp) of a tooth. Instead of removing the tooth, the infected pulp is carefully cleaned, disinfected, and sealed to preserve the natural structure.
When is RCT Needed? – Common Causes:
- Deep tooth decay or untreated cavities
- Cracked, chipped, or injured teeth
- Repeated dental procedures on the same tooth
- Severe gum disease or abscess formation
Signs You Might Need an RCT – Symptoms:
- Persistent toothache or throbbing pain
- Sensitivity to hot or cold, even after removal
- Swelling or tenderness in the gums
- Darkening or discoloration of the tooth
- Pus or pimple-like bump near the tooth
The RCT Procedure – What to Expect:
- Local anesthesia is applied for comfort
- The infected pulp is removed
- The inner area is cleaned and shaped
- The canal is filled and sealed
- A crown may be placed for protection and strength
How to Prevent Root Canal Issues:
- Maintain good oral hygiene (brush twice, floss daily)
- Get regular dental checkups and cleanings
- Avoid excessive sugary foods and drinks
- Don’t ignore tooth pain or sensitivity
- Use a mouthguard if you grind your teeth or play contact sports
